I'm sure those 4+ people are more in favour of the mantra of the thing rather than the innovation or creativity it shows. I was expecting an elaborate and convincing concoction of lyrics!

Not necessarily. Just expressing disappointment :p:

I don't know yet if I like PBL. That said, I really don't like lectures, so I guess in the current system, PBL's the only alternative.

My sympathies. the only reason I'm not smashed tonight is that I'm going out Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Saturday. I'd go out friday also, but I don't think people would like me turning up for a race smashed.

why do people make notes of lecture slides? i've literally never seen anyone do it haha!


So many people do it here. Some effectively copy them, some print them out, and others make small notes on them (what I do) when the lecturer says something that isn't in the notes/only appears on the powerpoint.
Anyone want to explain how pain works? I can't get it all to fit together in my head. I think I get how pain goes from the damaged site to the brain, but then I get lost when you add in descending control and gate control theory :dontknow:

Descending control/gate theory simply inhibits the sensory afferent fibres at the spinal level via the larger A beta fibres, reducing the overall pain signal.

At spinal level? So where does the substantia gellatinosa in the middle of my gate control diagram fit in? I thought it was in the brain? :confused:

The substantia gelatinosa is made up of layers I and II on the dorsal horn of spinal grey matter, it's where the A beta fibres interact with the primary afferents.
